### Circuit Problem

**Given Circuit Details:**
- \( R_1 = 9 \, \Omega \)
- \( R_2 = 5 \, \Omega \)
- \( R_3 = 10 \, \Omega \)
- \( V = 19 \, \text{volts} \)

**Circuit Diagram Explanation:**
- The circuit consists of three resistors: \( R_1 \) and \( R_3 \) are in series, and \( R_2 \) is connected in parallel to \( R_3 \).
- Voltage source \( V = 19 \, \text{volts} \) is connected across the entire circuit.

**Problems to Solve:**

(a) **Find the current passing through \( R_1 \):**

\[ I_1 = \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \text{A} \]

(b) **Find the potential difference across \( R_3 \):**

\[ V_3 = \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \text{V} \]

(c) **Find the power delivered to \( R_2 \):**

\[ P_2 = \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \text{W} \]

**Instructions:**
- Use Ohm's Law and rules for series and parallel circuits to solve the above problems.
- Ensure to use correct formulas and calculations for each part.
